There’s a famous black and white film from the early 1960s that showed Rio de Janeiro in five vignettes, each done by a different director about the favelas and its residents.

5x Pacification - Favelas Inside Out

It was called Cinco Vezes Favela (the full movie is below). With all the attention the favelas have been getting since 2008 when José Mariano Beltrame took his position as Rio state’s secretary of public safety, the film got a refresh in 2010. This time it was simply called 5x Favela (full movie below) and used favela residents as its principal actors. Fast forward another two years to mid-November 2012 and the film has now earned a spin-off: 5x Pacificação (trailer below). The new drama looks to show the pacification process headed by Beltrame’s UPP (Pacifying Police Force) and how they are viewed from the inside out. The first vignette, "Morro" shows the difference between communities that already have UPPs installed and those who have yet to receive them.
